  1. 1. Accelerated wound healing by on-site production and delivery of CXCL12

    Författare :Emelie Öhnstedt; Mia Phillipson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :wound healing; non-healing wounds; L. reuteri; macrophages; wound assessment; Fysiologi; Physiology;

    Sammanfattning : Non-healing wounds is a growing medical problem, often associated with pathological conditions such as diabetes and peripheral ischemia. A non-healing wound entails a large amount of suffering for the patient, and demands extensive health care resources. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Grainy head target genes in epithelial morphogenesis and wound healing

    Författare :Shenqiu Wang; Christos Samakovlis; Paul Martin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; grh; targets; epidermal wound repair; tracheal tube size control; local immune responses; stit; verm; serp; PGRP-LC; CecA-LacZ; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology;

    Sammanfattning : grainy head (grh) genes encode a family of transcription factors conserved from fly to human. Drosophila grh is the founding member of this gene family and has multiple functions, including tracheal tube size control, epidermal barrier formation and reconstruction after wounding. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Corneal cellular proliferation and wound healing

    Författare :Lisha Gan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :cornea; cell proliferation; wound healing; stem-cells; leukocytes; PCNA; hyaluronan; alkali injury; photorefractive keratectomy;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cellular proliferation plays an important role in both physiological and pathological processes. Epithelial hyperplasia in the epithelium, excessive scar formation in retrocorneal membrane formation and neovascularization are examples of excessive proliferation of cornea cells. Lack of proliferative ability causes corneal degeneration. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Inflammation and wound healing following photorefractive keratectomy

    Författare :Santiago Tomás Barberán; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Photorefractive keratectomy; excimer laser; inflammation; flare; prostaglandins; diclofenac; dexamethasone; pain; epithelial healing; corneal topography; growth factors; metalloproteinases; collagen; haze; haze distribution; Scheimpflug system; Laser Flare Meter; regression; reoperation; wound healing;

    Sammanfattning : This study comprises different aspects on the inflammatory and wound healing responses of the eye after Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK). The purpose was to provide basic information about the inflammatory reaction and the wound healing after surgery. PRK is considered a good technique for surgical correction of and moderate myopia.

  7. 5. The human antimicrobial peptide hCAP18 in epithelial defense

    Författare :Margareta Frohm Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Innate immunity; host defense; antimicrobial peptide; hCAP 18; LL-37; epithelia; wounds; breast cancer;

    Sammanfattning : Gene-encoded antimicrobial peptides serve a protective role in host defense. They are multifunctional effector molecules in innate immunity - the nonadaptive immune system -with the capacity to kill a broad spectrum of microorganisms. LÄS MER
